This was the best place to get music when I was younger. Jim is to thank for broadening my music horizons by always suggesting great music based on my interests. Their price tags list bands that are similar so it’s really helpful to find new stuff. Great prices, huge selections and lots of rare finds.

While not as large as the Guestroom records empire, Size beats the big boys in friendliness and service. Guestroom is able to pull in cartloads the new issue Indie albums, but the folks at Size seem to live for talking about music. I really enjoy riffling through their somewhat… nonchalant…racks. Also, in addition to punk and hardcore, Size has a lot of country western stuff too.

Yes it is located where Western Ave. starts to get sketchy, but if you consider yourself any kind of vinyl collector this place is a must. The prices are great. The records our vast. I’ve yet to go through the entire store. I love reading the little description notes on some of the records. Sample Note: Flin Flon’s A-OK says«Alright… another Mark Robinson project this one is amazing. Sounds as good as later Unrest LPs(Imperial/Perfect Teeth), but with a bit more of a rockin’ new wavish feel. Doesn’t have the over production of Air Miami ‘MeMeMe’. Very good!!! If your thinking about checking this out you should!» I don’t know who writes these,(I suspect Jim) or they might just print a quote they like off the internets, but I enjoy reading them. Even when there not all that flattering to the artist and totally disagree,(like with my God Help the Girl, album.) I still enjoy reading it. I know this might make the place sound a bit too pretentious, trust me it’s much to helpful and friendly to be that. The store is a little disheveled and hodge-podge, but it really has it’s own personality. I think it far succeeds any record stores in more major markets, especially on price. Plus the shop owners are really friendly, and are actually interested in music, and usually one of the owners are there, and want to help you. It’s not just people that work at record store, because it makes them look cool or something. Mostly I tag along with my husband and friends, when we go here, because my husband is such an audiofile, I have to ask him if we have something before I buy it.(Unless it’s something I know he’ll never buy, like Beruit or Tennis.) I browse the toy section from time to time, with Kidrobot items, art books, t-shirts and a variety of pop soda that only, «Pops» in Arcadia can rival. So even if your not into records, there’s plenty to keep you entertained.

No trip to OKC is not complete without a trip to Size. If I had only one hour to spend in OKC I would spend it at Size. Get on down there and buy yourself a dunny. You’ll be a better person for it.

Size Records is located on the fairly seedy, often sketchy stretch of Western Ave just north of Britton, directly next to OKC’s premier punk venue, The Conservatory. Owners Dustin and Jim are often in the store, sorting through new arrivals or walking the store striking up conversations with the patrons(this is more Jim than Dustin). Though not the largest record store in the metro area, they are primarily focused on music that the newer generations would be into; indie rock, hardcore/punk, and metal, each in its own section. The prices are overall really fair, and if you walk up to the counter with a large purchase stack, chances are they will knock a few bucks off the total just for being a good customer. If Jim is working, you can ask him a question about virtually any punk band from any era and he can give you an encyclopedic spiel about other bands you should check out as well, often walking you directly to the record and putting it in your hands. Listening stations are present as well.
